About Me
I'm a musician. A cynic by nature. An Atheist. I have a meager handful of friends, a dog called Poppy, and plenty of ambitions going unfulfilled. I play guitar till it hurts and have quite a collection of gear to my name. Been in lots of bands and currently trying to sort a new one out. I also play a mean bass. I love minimalism. Inanimate objects make me scream sometimes. Some of my photos have been published in an up-coming book about Orange Amps. I name my guitars. I live with my parents. I don't drive. I used to have really long hair, but had to have it cut due to an ever decreesing hair line. All my clothes are falling to pieces. My image is a mess. I'm hemophobic. My favourite comedians are, Doug Stanhope, Bill Hicks, Stephen Wright, Lenny Bruce and Mitch Hedberg, amongst others. I used to get a lot of shit for wearing flares, guess that was before it became cool again. I put my hand to a lot of creative stuff, though I'm mostly half arsed about it. I love Hayou Miyazaki and Takeshi Kitano films... a lot. Jackie Chan films are great. Sammo Hung is the man! I do/did/do/did/do/did Taekwondo. I'm obsessed with Japan. Bill Hicks, Bruce Lee, Richard Dawkins, Joshe Homme, Vincent Gallo and Paul Kossoff are people I idolise. I haven't had a girlfriend in a long long time and it sucks. I'm loving the Doom music more and more everyday. I really like Zombie films. I build websites, you're on one! I can mostly be seen sat in the corner of Jackob's Well in Bradford, like an old man cos it's warm. I like Moog, Fender, Orange, Matamp and D*A*M gear, girls with pretty names like Laura, and Art-House cinema. Doug Stanhope is our best hope, at what? I don't know. Why do I have a web site? that's a good question. The End
